I think lot of it comes down to the fact that in real life next season is lot further away than on SHL, nine weeks goes by lot faster than a year and that the stakes aren't nearly as high in SHL, also only 4 teams missing means there are less teams selling even if someone was looking to move a player plus lack of farm means sending young players down while replacing them with rentals isn't that feasible in the long run. Maybe somekind of cap relief could be implemented during the season to open up space to make some moves
